When Motown Meets The Blues

With your eyes
you see the shadows
of the dark, deep within my soul 
you see me

even when I don't feel whole
you see my every flaw
 
when I cannot see myself 
you see me
even when I've closed the door
 
when all the light 
is shaded by the dark
and when, even in my best mood 
the clouds remain
 
soaking me in misery 
to the point I am drowning
 
suffocating lungs filled with soot 
 
I will try my best to stand tall
 
a woman isn't always easy to see
but you see me 
 
with your eyes 
you see the sparkles
of light deep within my soul
 
you see me at my best
you see me, when I reach my goals
 
a woman isn't always easy to see
but you see me
you really do
 
and
that's when...
Motown meets the Blues.
